If you want to one day have critical, important conversations with your teen, you need to invest time in the little, inconsequential chats now. Showing your teen that you will make time for them, no matter what it's about, will help build crucial trust. In today's episode, Mark talks about how the little things add up in long-term relationships and reshares some stories of how his mentors — and the people who doubted him — shaped his life and ministry.
